The sum of all the measurements is just the average times the number.

\bar x = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^n x_i

\sum_{i=1}^n x_i = n \bar x

So if the average of all 92 is 7 the sum of those is 92 \times 7

The average of the last two is 7.2 so their sum is 2 \times 7.2

That means the sum of the first 90 is 92 \times 7 - 2 \times 7.2

so the average of the first 90 is

 \dfrac{92 \times 7 - 2 \times 7.2}{90} = 6.99556 cm

a) On Wednesday, Harry sold 3 times as many candy bars as on Tuesday. On Thursday, he sold 5 times as many bars as on Wednesday.
Alborosie

Answer:

Tues=8 Weds=24 Thurs=120

Step-by-step explanation:

The question can be modeled by the equation x+3x+15x=152

x is the amount sold on tuesday, 3x is 3 times the amount sold on tuesday so it represents wednesday and 15x represents thursday as it is 5 times the amount sold on wednesday.

Now we just need to solve for x to figure out how many he sold each day.

x+3x+15x=19x

19x=152

x=152/19

x=8

To find the amount sold on each day just mulitiply x by the coefficient

Tuesday = x = 8

Wednesday = 3x = 3*8 = 24

Thursday = 15x = 15*8 = 120

In each of the following equations, what is
timama [110]

The graph will cross at the coordinates (-2, 9)

<h3>How to solve equations?</h3>

y = 3x + 15

y = 3 - 3x

y = 3x + 15

Hence,

when x = 2

y = 3(2) + 15 = 21

when x = 0

y = 3(0) + 15 = 15

y = 3 - 3x

when x = 2

y = 3 - 3(2)

y = 3 - 6

y = -3

when x = 0

y = 3 - 3(0)

y = 3

Therefore, let's check if the equation will cross.

y = 3x + 15

y = 3 - 3x

using substitution,

3 - 3x = 3x + 15

3  - 15 = 3x + 3x

- 12 = 6x

x = -12 / 6

x = -2

y = 3 - 3(-2)

y = 3 + 6

y = 9

Therefore, the graph will cross at the coordinates (-2, 9)
